Break Them Down

Systematic Use of Psychological Torture by US Forces

As evidence of US national security interrogation practices emerged, it
became clear that psychologically abusive methods of interrogation were
at the core of US intelligence gathering. Break Them Down,
published by PHR in May 2005, was the first comprehensive review of the
use of psychological torture by US forces, examining the devastating
health consequences of psychological coercion and explaining how a
regime of psychological torture was put into place in the US "war on
terror".
